  • In this thesis, we develop and analyze the beamforming algorithm which has two constraints to combat the signal cancellations. Through the simulation results, it is shown that the proposed scheme is more efficient compared with the spatial averaging method for preventing signal cancellation and eliminating interfering signal.

  • In this paper, we present an improvement of a closed-form formula for mutual impedance computation. Depending on the center-to-center spacing between two rectangular microstrip patch antennas, the mutual impedance formula is separated into two parts. The formula based on synthetic asymptote and variable separation is utilized for spacings of more than 0.5 ${\lambda}_0$. When the spacing is less than 0.5 ${\lambda}_0$, an approximate formula is proposed to improve the computation for closely spaced elements. Simulation results are compared to computational results of mutual impedances and mutual coupling coefficients as functions of normalized center-to-center spacing in both E- and H-plane coupling configurations. A good agreement between simulation and computation is achieved.

  • In this paper, a mobile relay station (MRS) for vehicles with a beamforming antenna is considered to increase the reliability of the transmission link, particularly for the MRS at the cell boundary. A cell searching and direction-of-arrival estimation method for an MRS with a uniform linear array is proposed for OFDM-based cellular systems in a multipath environment, even with the existence of the symbol timing offsets and carrier frequency offsets. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by computer simulation using the standard profile of IEEE 802.16e.

  • In this paper, the performance of a new alternative form of three-axis attitude estimation algorithm for a rigid body is evaluated via simulation for the situation where the observed vectors are the estimated baselines of a GPS antenna array. This method is derived based on a simple iterative nonlinear least-squares with four elements of quaternion parameter. The representation of quaternion parameters for three-axis attitude of a rigid body is free from singularity problem. The performance of the proposed algorithm is compared with other eight existing methods, such as, Transformation Method (TM), Vector Observation Method (VOM), TRIAD algorithm, two versions of QUaternion ESTimator (QUEST), Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) method, Fast Optimal Attitude Matrix (FOAM), Slower Optimal Matrix Algorithm (SOMA).

  • A promising approach to improve the performance of mobile location system is the use of antenna arrays in both transmitter and receiver sides. Using advanced array signal processing techniques, such multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems can offer more mobile location information by exploiting the spatial properties of the multipath channel. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to determine the position of mobile terminal based on estimated multipath signal parameters using only one base station in MIMO communication systems. This approach intends to minimize the error occurring from the estimation of multiple paths and gives an optimal estimation of the position of mobile terminal by simultaneously calculating a set of nonlinear location equations. This solution breaks the bottleneck of conventional mobile location systems which have to require multilateration of at least three base stations.

  • 본 논문에서는 변형된 QMSA에 전기력선이 제한되지 않도록 용량을 장하한 MSA를 제안 하였다. 안테나의 크기는 약 $30mm\times86.6mm\times1.575mm$의 크기를 갖는다. 안테나 특성은 듀얼밴드 설계에서 1.93GHz와 2.03GHz의 두 동작 주파수 동조를 수월하게 하였다. 듀얼밴드 동작을 얻기 위한 기술은 양측 평행 평판과 $\lambda/2$ 방사 폐치를 변화시킴으로서 조정할 수 있다. 또한 1.93GHz 와 2.03GHz의 동작 주파수에 대해 E면과 H면에서 시뮬레이션 된 방사 패턴은 비교 분석되었다. 이동 통신을 위한 설계 제작된 듀얼 밴드 안테나 이득은 약 11.394dBi 이고 이득 변화는 아래와 위 공진 주파수에 대해 1.0dBi 보다 작다.

  • 본 논문에서는 도심지 이동 통신에서 SINR 성능을 향상시키기 위해 기존의 배열 안테나에 최소 평균 자승(LMS) 알고리즘을 적용하여 실제 배열 출력과 이상적 출력간의 최소 평균 오차(MSE)를 최소화하고 안테나의 배열로부터 가중치를 결합한 신호에 의해 방향성을 적절히 제어하여 간섭신호를 효과적으로 제거한다. 배열 출력 신호 대 간섭에 추가된 잡음비(SINR) 성능 분석에 적합한 삼차원적 분석을 사용하여 적응 배열 원소를 사용한 성능과 모노폴 안테나 원소에서 배열의 성능을 비교한다. 또한, SINR 패턴 각 비(PAR)를 사용하여 적응 배열 원소 방위, 내부 원소간의 간격들 그리고 입사 신호 방향들과 같은 다른 배열 매개 변수들에서 배열 성능을 계산하고 SINR 패턴의 양적 평가를 한다. 결과로서, 적응 배열 원소가 가정된 신호 환경에 있어 4상파형(quarterwave) 모노폴(monopole) 안테나 배열보다 더 바람직하다.
